The posting of quotes by human authors does not constitute agreement with either the quotes or their sources. (I try to confirm the sources that I give, but may miss on occasion; please verify if possible.)
“How about if we accept that God has the power, the wisdom, and the grace to perfectly use imperfect humanity, and that every aspect of our faith is built on that?” -- Jon Gleason
“Christ went more willingly to the cross than we do to the throne of grace.” -- Thomas Watson
“We shouldn’t try to fit the Bible into a position, but take a position that the Bible teaches.” -- Kent Brandenburg
“If we are looking to fit [Bible] passages into a particular position, that’s a tell-tale indicator of how to come to a wrong one.” -- Kent Brandenburg
“The people who worry most about ‘bibliolatry’ are the people who worship the destructive critics of the Bible.” -- Peter Ruckman (I do not recommend Ruckman, but I think he got that right)
“Ekklesia is not always a ‘church,’ but that doesn’t mean that it is anything other than an assembly.” -- Kent Brandenburg (commenting on Acts 19:32,39,41)
“You can’t read Leviticus without being spattered with blood.” -- Blake Dover
“The obedience in water baptism brings a good conscience toward God, but the same water refused leaves one devoid of that good conscience.” -- W. A. Dillard
“There is more mercy in Christ than sin in us.” -- Richard Sibbes
“The Bible is ‘inerrant,’ without errors of any sort on any matters, not on anything it teaches (theology) nor on anything it touches (history, science) in the process of teaching.” -- John Tors
“As the fear of God is the beginning of wisdom, so the denial of God is the height of foolishness.” -- R. C. Sproul
“It has been said that the Christian faith is personal but not private; our faith is political but it is not partisan…the Lordship of King Jesus should determine how we think about all areas of life.” -- Preston Sprinkle (Sprinkle goes in bad directions applying the principle, but I believe the principle itself is valid)
“Rejecting biblical infallibility outside the original autographs leaves such professing Christians in a very precarious situation indeed: hypocritically claiming divine authority from a book they vehemently insist is flawed.” -- Britt Williams
“Prisons and problems do not dictate whether or not you have joy in Christ.” -- Craig Duncan
“Without truth, everything becomes about who has power.” -- Kent Brandenburg
